If you’re a pet owner looking for natural pet supplements to support a balanced diet, kelp might be the best investment you can make. Kelp is a whole food that has been celebrated for its health benefits in humans for generations, and thanks to The Missing Link® Pet Kelp®, our pets can now enjoy the powerful wellness support of this nutrient-rich superfood.
What is Kelp and Why is it Good for Pets?
Kelp is a type of seaweed that grows in shallow ocean waters. Unlike land plants, kelp absorbs nutrients directly from the water around it, which is why it can be such a nutrient-dense ingredient, containing minerals, vitamins, and amino acids, including iodine and iron.
A good diet still comes first, but whether you’re choosing from the Nature’s Ki dog food collection or cat food collection, kelp for pets provides an added layer of support.
The Health Benefits of Kelp for Dogs and Cats
In terms of pet supplements, kelp for dogs and cats has a huge range of benefits. One of which is its natural fibre content, which supports healthy digestion and regular bowel movements.
Pet kelp supplements that use quality kelp are also high in amino acids, which improve oral health, skin and coat condition, and general vitality. Paired with iodine, which supports thyroid function and the metabolism, it makes for a healthier dog or cat.
For pets with sensitive skin or coat concerns, kelp may also be useful as part of a broader nutrition plan. You can read more about food and skin health in our guide to choosing the best food for pets with sensitive skin.
How to Add Kelp to Your Pet’s Diet
The Missing Link Pet Kelp range uses high-quality kelp to provide a natural, nutrient-rich supplement that supports digestive health, skin and coat condition, metabolism, and overall wellness.
As with adding anything new to your pet's diet, introduce it gradually and keep an eye on your pet’s appetite, digestion, skin, and coat as they adjust.
